It is challenging to predict why this occurs, but we tentatively suggest that it may reflect amore accurate representation of students' thoughts on these ethical dilemmas. Additionally, itmight indicate a deeper consideration of the complex factors typically involved in real ethicaldecisions, rather than merely an abstract evaluation of what a reasonable engineer should do.Given these results and to gain a fuller understanding of students’ changes in ethical reasoningthroughout their undergraduate programs, we contend
